“I would love you no matter what.”

While some people use their hair as a method of personal style and expression, it's important to realize not everyone has that option. So, The Try Guys, who each felt uniquely connected to their hair, decided to "go bald" for a day, and see how their confidence was affected:

Whether bald by choice, or by circumstance... it's clear that both men and women can rock the look. However, when these men realized just how common male hair loss is, they enlisted the help of makeup artists to show them just what their future might look like:

For Zach, hereditary baldness runs in his family. So, he was hopeful that this experiment would make losing his hair something he feared less, and could embrace more.

For Keith, baldness is also in his genes. He was nervous that he wouldn't have the best head shape or be able to hide a mole he was insecure about.

Keith and Becky are adorable, this is a fact. But would they remain adorable while being handcuffed together for 24 hours? Only one way to find out...

Safiya and Tyler are a very solid, loving couple. We could've just let them keep living their cute-couple life, but instead, we decided to have them give each other hair makeovers. But these weren't just any hair makeovers...these were a complete SURPRISE:

The rules: Saf got to style Tyler and Tyler got to style Saf. Neither of them would know what was happening to their own hair until the final reveal. And the mastermind behind all this? Ned "Danger" Fulmer:

Safiya brought up an excellent point, which would hopefully deter anyone from going too crazyyyy.

Tyler talked about being self-conscious because of his "bulbous head." Apparently, a barber even commented on it once:

The Try Guys recreate ancient Olympic events butt-naked, and learn that they were very different from the Games we know and love today.

With the Olympics just around the corner, what better way to celebrate than to pay homage to its surprising history? The Try Guys decided to test their strength, endurance, and shamelessness and recreate the ancient Olympic games:

Special thanks to the Getty Villa, Shelby Brown, PhD and Desiree Zenowich for educating us on the rich history of the ancient Greek games.

The Olympic Games were called that because they took place in Olympia, originating in 776 B.C. They were originally a religious festival meant as a way for men to prepare for war.

We've come a long way, from war-training to friendly sport.

After over 1,000 years of Olympics, they ended in the late 4th century A.D., under Christianity (since the various Games were associated with pagan gods). There was a very long period without them, but they were later reinvented in the 19th century.

They were finally brought back in 1896, after ancient Greek culture became popular in Europe. Those first modern games were also held in Greece. The reinvented international version is what we continue to celebrate today.

What happens behind the picture-perfect image, and is it actually attainable for women? For the first time, men will be subjected to the same amount of scrutiny when the Try Guys re-create famously photoshopped pictures of female celebrities.

One recurring response was that commenters pointed out that this was just a small taste of what women have to endure every day.

Previously, a few brave ladies explored what it felt like to get photoshopped to meet the beauty standards imposed on women, one of many original BuzzFeed experiments focusing on women's retouching culture. But have men ever truly been put under the same type of intense scrutiny and editing?
